BOTTLE OF KANONKOP KADETTE CAPE BLEND 2018
The bright ruby colour of this wine is complimented on the nose by attractive aromas of red currants, cherries, spice and a touch of mocha. The palate is lively and fresh, with succulent raspberry flavours. The fruit is supported by a firm, yet silky tannin structure. Savoury notes persist on the lengthy finish.
Tim Atkin MW – 90 points; Platter’s Guide – 4*
